the big nipple

If New York is the Big Apple, then the US is the Big Nipple. That's the top, that is as high as you can go, but mostly, when the nipple shows, nothing else can be seen.
But an effort will be made. And the question asked: is life worth living anywhere but in the Big Nipple?

what's good for General Motors....

What's good for General Motors is good for the country too.The actual statement by secretary Wilson was, more accurately, "what's good for the country is good for general motors and vice versa".Makes no difference: we here in the big nipple say what's good for the big nipple is good for the world too. And there IS no vice versa.What is good for the world is NOT at all necesarily good for the United States (herein noted as The Big Nipple, as NY is known as the big apple).In fact, there may be some doubt that real symmetry exists between the goodness for the United States extends to its citizens.What we have is a policy of finding what is good for the oligarchical few, the hands of the international corporations which funds the country's political landscape and who share a common labor pool for those highest positions. And as the slave holding south was sustained by white Christian fanatics, we have that same sick cheering and self congratulatory mass reassembled to support the George Bush Crusade and Self Indulgent Marching Band.Thus, the fallacy that failure for the United States in Iraq would be terrible for the world because it certainly would appear to be terrible for the United States.But consider: what might be seen as a failure of the United States in Iraq might be in fact a more complete success for Iraq and would that not more likely be a benefit to the world. And should it NOT be the case that what is good for the world is good for the US, well, time for that in itself" so the big nipple would claim.Bullshit: what would victory in Viet Nam have brought us but a permanent battle station.A best outcome for Iraq and for the world, I suggest, would be the failure, complete and open for all to see, of the United States mercenery policies riding and so visibly clear under the tattered sheeps clothing of democracy.

It's clean and peaceful in the big nipple

We fight wars over there so they won't be fought over here. We have things made with cheap labor over there so we can buy them cheap over here. Things are clean here because we don't let that crap like in Mexico be used up here. And the crap we DO create up here, we ship to Canada and Africa and dump into the oceans.
So, things are great in the big nipple. And we rely on our government and newspapers and other media to keep that nasty stuff out of our faces while we sing and dance to "We are the greatest".
A number people outside the big nipple might tend to get pissed.

To Iraq with love: suck on the Big Nipple*

Suck on this thing, godammit! It is good for you you ungrateful sonsofbitches! We even pretend your religion (not being Christian) isn't complete bullshit (and you'd probably kill our missionaries from Christ, yeah, you would) And we give you this big nipple and your won't suck?
I'll stuff this thing right in there, open those lips you little shit.
*Suck on the Big Nipple": it's official US policy.

The big nipple IN the big apple

The full force of the United States now occupies NY city, in the form of the GOP, bringing a taste of repressive government to what may be a testing ground: "If I can make it here, I'll make it anywhere" says the department of wherever-the-fuck Bush is stuffing all the shit lately: the weekly restructuring an total absorption of all business and money into the eternal war on evil, god save the big nipple and it's dwarf in residence, King Bush the Miniscule.
(Being short, I take offense at such naming.)

"Americans are stupid" says Michael Moore

And it's ture. Really. And Christians (eg, Jerry Falwell) are complete assholes.
Anywhere in the whole wide world, but not in the big nipple
where the vice president can say "fuck yourself" thus elevating the discourse. (Actually, that is THE major contribution of the entire GOP: introducing fuck you into the public lexicon.)
This is the big nipple.
